  Internet on the go.

  By SBF9304 | Review Date: Apr 25, 2010 | DS

  Basically the slogan, "Internet on the go." is all its worth. There's a lot of cons. It sucks up the battery power (I think you can only get 6 hours on the dimmest setting (although if you plan to stay on one page the... Read Full Review

  Seems more gimmick than practical.

  By mayoraldigital | Review Date: Aug 11, 2007 | DS

  I was very interested in getting one as soon as I heard they were coming. I was easily able to connect to wifi hot spots and my wireless connection at home. Loading times for normal websites is very slow. It is best to... Read Full Review
